Visit By Boat

Sheldrake Point Winery and Vineyard is located on Cayuga Lake, where you’ll find a beautiful, inviting space with friendly staff eager to share their knowledge of wine with you. We offer a variety of tasting menus that range from our best selling wines, our dry style vinifera wines and reserve wines, dessert wines and estate produced ice wines. Once you have tasted our wines, we’ll be happy to tell you what wines from other Finger Lakes vintners you might enjoy.

If you set out to visit along the Cayuga Lake Wine Trail, stop by our location at 7448 County Road 153, Ovid, N.Y, set alongside Cayuga Lake and accessible by car or boat. This location is home to our vineyard, winery and tasting room, as well as our artisan wine shop, with a selection of gifts and foods from Finger Lakes artisans and area producers. Some of the New York made products you’ll find include local foods such as farm fresh cheeses, sauces, jams, crackers, and handmade chocolates.

“Wonderful visit. Our wine poured was knowledgable and friendly. She was able to aptly match our flavor palates to create a wonderful experience. We opted to sit on the porch with a glass of wine and some cheese overlooking to amazing views. Excellent wine, service and environment“. – M.M., Fort Worth, TX Oct 2015

“We’re not much for tastings as we prefer to simply order a glass of dry red or white wine of the staff’s choosing and then taking it out and enjoying the grounds, especially in wineries with views of the lake. The knowledgeable woman in the tasting room would have none of that and charmed me into tasting all of the “dry wines” before choosing one. She was right as they were all so very different, and I ended up with a wine I truly enjoyed rather than just any dry wine. Her explanation of “meritage” was also very helpful, and she probably could have taught this long-time wine drinker so much more. A great experience from a great winery representative“. – B.D., Utica, NY Sept 2015

“This was by far one of the best customer service experiences in the tasting room. The winery representative was very friendly and knowledgeable about the wines and enthusiastic. This is a place for Riesling. Yes, I know the Finger Lakes is known for Rieslings but this place is REALLY good“. – P.B., Harrisburg, PA Aug 2015
